Ferring Privacy Policy
Ferring thanks you for visiting its web site. Because we are committed
to respecting the privacy of our web site visitors, this web site Privacy
Policy describes the information we may collect from you during your visit
to our site, how we may use it, and how we will protect the information
which you may opt to provide. This policy explains the efforts to balance
our business interests in collecting and using the information we receive
from you with your need for appropriate protection and management of any
personally identifiable information that you share with us.
Personally Identifiable Information
Personally identifiable information includes your name, address, phone
number, e-mail address or any other information which might reasonably
be used to identify you individually. Ferring collects personally identifiable
information from web site visitors only when it is voluntarily provided.
Ferring will not otherwise collect this information from you on our web
site.
At those portions of our web site where we provide you with the option
to input personally identifiable information, we notify you of the uses
we intend to make of that information in any given instance. When Ferring
receives personally identifiable information, we may use it for reasonable
business purposes, just as non-Internet businesses do. For example, we
may use this information to contact you, via e-mail or regular mail, to
provide you with information we believe may be of interest. It might also
be used for compiling data and analyses to understand and serve our customers'
needs. Data is also compiled to evaluate the use and utility of the services
we provide on-line. Your information may be transferred for processing
and use to Ferring facilities in other countries and regions of the world.
Personally identifiable information will not be sold, rented or exchanged
outside of Ferring unless the user is first notified and expressly consents
to such transfer.
Collective/Aggregate Data
The Ferring web site may also collect information from you that is not
personally identifiable. For example, we might track information about
the date and time visitors access our site, the type of web browser they
used, and the web site from which they connected to our site. Our web
sites collect this information by depositing certain bits of information
called "cookies" in a visitor's computer. This technology does
not collect an individual visitor's personally identifiable information.
Rather, this information is collected in an aggregate form. The cookies
can tell us how and when pages in a web site were visited and by how many
people. This aggregate information will enable us to improve our web sites
to serve and inform you better. It also may allow you to shortcut access
to points of interest on our web site when you re-enter our system. Attaching
this device to your system has no effect on how it performs.
Links To Other Sites
As a resource to our visitors, Ferring may provide links to other web
sites. We try to carefully choose web sites, which we believe are useful
and meet our high standards for the accuracy and utility of information.
However, because web site design and content can change so quickly, we
cannot guarantee the standards of every web site to which we link. Likewise,
we are not responsible for the content of any non-Ferring site. We also
cannot guarantee the privacy policies of these other sites and suggest
you check the privacy policies of those sites directly.
Choice
If you wish to stop receiving any e-mails or other consumer communications
from Ferring which may be sent to you in the future based on your request
for this information, or if you have submitted personally identifiable
information through a Ferring web site and would like to have that information
deleted from our records, please notify us via the contact form on the
this site. Your wishes in these matters will be honoured.
Accuracy
Ferring will make every effort to maintain the accuracy and confidentiality
of any personal information you supply to us. If you wish to make additions
or other corrections to the information that you have sent in, please
transmit it to us via the contact form on the this site.
Security
All information transmitted to this Ferring web site is secure to the
extent possible using existing technology. Unauthorised third parties
should not be able to access it during transmission. We will store the
information that you share with us securely and will take appropriate
steps to protect it from unauthorised access or disclosure. While no security
steps can offer 100 percent protection, we utilise state-of-the-art technology
and systems to prevent unauthorised access to the information we hold.
We will limit access to this information to those Ferring personnel with
a need to know. We educate our staff about their duty to protect your
privacy.
Children
Ferring does not intentionally collect or retain personally identifiable
information about children who are younger than 18 years of age. If your
child may have submitted information to us without indicating their actual
age, and you would like it removed, please advise us through the contact
form on the this site, and we will delete it immediately.
Changes
Any changes to this privacy policy will be communicated promptly at this
location. Please check the privacy page periodically to review any changes
that may have been made.
Thank you for visiting the Ferring web site. We value your interest and
ideas. If you have any comments or concerns regarding the use of information
provided to Ferring via an Internet site, please contact us via the contact
form on this site.
